Many thanks to those of you who joined us at Week 5’s National Demo – Warwick students had a strong presence on the day which got us featured prominently in several major news outlets including BBC News and the Guardian!
Last Friday, the government released its Green Paper on the future of Higher Education in UK, which outlines upcoming rises in tuition fees and the imposition of new regulatory frameworks which pose potential challenges for academics and students alike - please see below for an overview from the SU’s Education Officer.
